English = 5D4A64 | Russian = 4E7A27
Irina was flying through the course, in both the literal and figurative sense. She had rocketed ahead of the other racers as Nate alley ooped her to start the race off. Flying through caverns and bright lights, and trees, Irina easily passed through all but a very narrow portion of the cavern in which she hit the wall a bit. That didn’t bother her, broom racing was meant to be aggressive and a fight against the obstacles as much as the people. She was out here to win and a cavern wouldn’t change that for her. Irina would keep going until her team crossed the line in first.

The race started and everyone took off except Nate. The Russian had another job and while many soon disappeared from his field of vision, he was getting ready to make his own somewhat delayed start soon. It was going well for Irina, as Nate could perceive it and knew it was about to start the fun for him. He was ready for take off.

And finally some spells started to show, instead of flying rocks! However Fyodor had missed their target with Andrew avoiding being blindfolded. Ying admitted to herself that that spell was really a pain to deal with. That, and being able to follow all the events happening fast and at the same time, the young girl saw in horror when Nate and Stephen fell from their brooms, "Ufff, that must have hurt, hope they will be able to recover soon, both teams need their racers back on their tracks!" Ying said through the megaphone.

Their hidden surprises for that race were now starting to appear too. Ying saw with some playful malice that the strange lobsters were finally awaken a going after some misfortune racers. "That was bad luck!" Ying commented, "Have faith guys, I'm sure a little bite will not bring that much harm!" She said, but thinking to herself that if it didn't really bring some interesting developments it wouldn't be so much fun!

It was quite disappointing that the mosps were still flying unbothered by the racers. What was wrong with that mosps? But well...Ying cleared her throat before continuing her comments on the race happening before her, "What an exciting race! It seems everyone is giving their best, it's a wonderful event so far! Keep flying for the win guys!" The audience was rooting for their teams with their cheering words, whistles and screams. For some it might be too noisy, but Ying felt at home and happier than ever to be there, she lived for the broom race, this was really where she belonged

Mira tries her best to get on with her competition. She zooms out again as soon as possible on her Moontrimmer. She flies through the units, trying hard to avoid the obstacles. She got hit some times, and finally, without wanting it to happen. She and her Ilvermony teammate Athena stops at the same Unit, unable to continue immediately. She sighs.

Abilities

Perfectionist 1 - Year 1
Reducio
Stephen has always excelled at the things he is most interested in doing, and from a very young age, he has had grand dreams. He has been obsessed since the age of four with the desire to be an astronaut. The idea of being part of an extraordinarily elite few who may one day be rocketed into space to colonize Mars was the epitome of his grandest dreams. And from a young age, mentored and guided by his best friend's astronaut father, Stephen had learned to control impulses and focus his energies where he felt they would do him the most good in order to achieve his dreams.

He spent endless hours practicing advanced mathematical problems and honing his skills on the basketball court. He was early for practice and generally last to leave. He always looked for opportunities to expand his knowledge and then apply it. When he learned about the combustion engine and how it worked, he could not rest until he had taken his mother's engine apart and put it all back together. He was a doer. He was a thinker. He was an adventurer. And because he realized the dangers of what his dreams could ultimately lead to, Stephen endeavored to obliterate every variable, under his control, that would lead to anything less than a perfect outcome. A mistake, even a small one, could lead to death, and that was just unacceptable.

When he felt like his world had been tossed upside down and his dreams had been tossed aside as if they were nothing, he was initially angry and resentful when entering Ilvermorny. He did not want to be a wizard. He wanted to be an astronaut. Then he got to Ilvermorny and his resentment did not leave for a few months, but he could not help developing interests in Transfiguration, Astronomy, and Broom Racing. He had to admit, there was nothing like the thrill of zipping and zooming through the air at fantastic speeds and dizzying heights on a broom. Recognizing this may be as close to being an astronaut he may ever get, Stephen threw himself into his studies and practices. It was all paying off as his grades were consistently nothing but 'O's.

He had even heard of something called Apparating which made him wonder if that could ever be possible to places beyond the bounds of this big blue marble. All research on the subject had led him to a definitive 'no', but Stephen believed no breakthroughs could ever be made and progress in everything, even magic, could be stalled and stagnate without visionaries. Until he learned differently, his goal was to see such a possibility become reality, and he would endeavor to prepare both his body and his mind in the pursuit of answers and practical advancements on this, and many other subjects.

Evasive Maneuvers - Year 2
Reducio
Stephen had always been a naturally gifted athlete, but he did not rest on his natural abilities alone. He worked hard at perfecting them and honing them. He was a star forward on his basketball team back in Moraga, California before attending Ilvermorny for this past year as a first year wizard. He was also tall for his age. That helped in basketball for sure, but as a broom racer, it presented a certain set of new problems.

He was 5’2” when he entered Ilvermorny, but he had continued to grow, as one would suspect a healthy, strapping young teenage boy to do. He was now 5’4”, and still taller than most of his classmates, but he was not lanky or clumsy looking. He wore his height proportionately well. Exercise kept his body pumped full of endorphins and his mind clear and able to focus on the things most important to him. He had developed a rather specific workout routine that was both arduous and fun. At least to Stephen it was fun. In addition to his daily cross country running regimen and his broom flying practices and drills, not to mention the occasional pick up games of basketball that he would join in on if he could spare the time from his studies, he also lifted weights. By any set of metrics used, Stephen was in phenomenal shape. His reflexes were quick, sharp, and on point.

He had noticed just the slightest bit of sluggishness in dodging abilities after returning back to school from winter break, however. He at first attributed it to the fact that his routine had slacked off just a bit while on vacation, but even after getting back into it hard for a month after the start of the second term, he was still noting it, especially up on his broom. His center of gravity was everything when flying, and he was finding it just a little more uncomfortable on his broom. As he was a boy with an engineer mindset, he put quite a lot time and energy into diagnosing the problem for the onset of his broom issues. What he finally determined was that his height may be an issue and though he was in excellent shape, perhaps he could be a little more nimble. This is when he added Pilates to his regimen. He wanted to stretch and elongate his muscles while strengthening his core. Flexibility was the key to his problem, he was certain.

It stood to reason that were he to become a more lithe broom racer, his sluggishness would dissipate. This would allow him to hug his broom even more closely and, he suspected, improve his ability and quick timing to dodge and change course if necessary while not fearing that his strength would fail him or that his center of gravity would shift without warning when a fast maneuver needed to be made. It took a little bit of time to get used to it, but Stephen found it had paid off nice dividends on his timing when flying. The issues he had noticed when coming back from winter break seemed to no longer be an issue for him, and for that, he was most pleased. (WC: 538)


Perfectionist II - Year 3
Reducio
Perfection, he had heard many times over, was an impossible state of being. Though loathe to admit it, he believed that to be mostly true at a basic level. People were people and therefore fallible - even him. Real world situations were always complicated and dynamic, any one of which had myriad outcomes possible dependent upon a seemingly endless number of variables. Some situations allowed for more leeway, for more forgiveness, so to speak, to reach an acceptable outcome. The saying, "Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades," would speak to that very point. But by what metric would one find perfection in the game, or series of games, of horseshoes, for example? He supposed it may be possible to throw nothing but ringers in a single game, maybe even in two or more, but could it be done in every single game one was to play? Highly doubtful.

So what came to Stephen's mind was what would the new metric for perfection be when perfection itself was not truly possible? A slate of wins, comprised of less than perfect scores, but scores still good enough to beat a competitor? Maybe that was getting closer to a reasonable, working theory of perfection. Less "X" marks the spot and more of a here is the acceptable range.

When Stephen approached anything, he did it with the mindset to always hit the mark. "X" really did mark the spot for him. The idea of ranging out perfection was something he felt happened, and was acceptable, when learning a new skill, but the goal was to always hit the nail on the head. He was a strong believer that practice made perfect, so he devoted all spare time to perfecting the things he did. Not working to perfect everything, of course, because he also believed in living a healthy happy life. So when failing to attain a perfect result, he never beat himself up. It simply spurred him on to work harder.

And he did work hard.

He practiced especially hard, daily, on his flying skills and Broom Racing maneuvers. He was diligent about his physical workouts to keep his mind and body sharp, but it was his studies where his efforts were directed more than anywhere else. He was a student who thrived on getting into the weeds in his magic classes. The "how" to cast a spell or transfigure an object was not enough for his brain. The "why" was equally important, maybe moreso. The more he understood about anything, and all of its complexities, the more he was able to apply his knowledge for optimum results. He was still the kid who always asked for more homework. It was just who he was and what he did.

Perfection was not simply a single result, borne from hours, or sometimes years, of repetitive practice, and it certainly wasn't a natural state of being. He had come to believe it was a state of mind so he had disciplined his mind and trained his body to achieve "his" highest state of perfection when it came to casting, potioneering, transfiguring, and flying.

The reality was that he was a wizard. He saw no path from graduating Ilvermorny and getting an appointment to the United States Air Force Academy, so all his efforts had been turned and directed to being the best wizard he could be. But seeing no pathway did not mean closely held dreams faded away. It just propelled him onward to control variables in his current reality in the hope that there might still be, well, hope.

Perfectionist 1 || Perfectionist 2 || Evasive Maneuvers
ENGLISH || RUSSIAN
Any lingering hope that this was going to have an Aesop's fable ending vs a repeat of Koldovstoretz's ending last summer were fast flying right out the window. He did have a brief few moments of optimism as Andrew swung him around and then launched him forward like a rocket in a text book perfect Alley Oop move. It was always exhilarating when they practiced the maneuver at home, and it was no less so here and now.

Stephen was just so absolutely sure that if victory was not be theirs, at least their opponents were going to feel the pressure of competition breathing down their backs. This Oop maneuver was their shot at just that, but it quickly turned into an Oops moment. He was so focused on what, and who, was in front of him that he failed to see in time when it all went sideways - from the side.

At the last second he caught in his peripheral vision something heading straight for him. It was too late to maneuver, so all he could do was brace himself, but the law of physics still apply in the magical world. It was a blatch attempt and to his credit, it looked for a moment to be a failed one, but physics prevailed over his attempt at balance and off his broom he went.

He was less concerned about the pain coming his way and watched the trajectory of his broom.

It wasn't over yet.

Yet.

The Ilvermony team had not been doing very well. They had to catch up if they wanted to win. Athena was trying her best to keep up with the others. She was shakey, after all, it was her first official race. The tension was high, Athena was very hesitant on a lot of the things she did. She had to gun it, and just go, but her instincts got in the way. Think before you do. Maybe it wasn’t right, not at this moment anyway

Well that didn't work out as planned. Well, the beginning was fine and Irina was able to get off to a good start, but as soon as Nate wanted to get going, something unexpected happened. Some bloke blutched him right of his broom. It caught him cold from the blindside and the big Russian flew off his broom and landed on the ground. He suppressed an ouch, or any cursing, and a dark grumble was heard in his throat. It annoyed him, but he pulled himself together.

Language: Russian / English | iNPC: Nikolai Ryzhkov
───────────────────────────────────
Taking note of the American keeping pace alongside them, Nikolai tightens his grip on his broom and veers to the side. The impact with the older boy is jarring and nearly enough to unseat Nikolai himself before he regains his balance, but the satisfaction of sending the opposing racer to the ground more than makes up for it. The boy holds his breath as the Malaclaw spots him soon after the feat. His movement is a bit frantic as he veers out of the way of the strange chomping lobster-like creatures, though he does give a sympathetic wince as Fyodor is unable to find the same bit of luck.

Koldovstoretz Broom Racer
Outfit: Racing Uniform

XXXOnward and upward they pushed, attempting to overtake the Ilvermorny students who zipped through the skies. Fedya, himself, thought that he could likely manage to take the lead with a little hard work and perseverance--after all, that was everything that anyone ever said to him as motivation.

That is, until he ran into the mackled malacaws. They went as swiftly as they'd come, but not without taking a sizable prize. Fedya's composure, because within the next few meters, he had become stuck on the unit.

Fedya had always been spacey, to put it simply. Maybe it was the fact that he really didn't seem all that interested in the aesthetic value of the things his family members and fellow classmates might care for. He was simply much too focused on his studies, nose in a book, or otherwise didn't care. Honestly, he would tell anyone who asked that he really didn't care much for aesthetic beauty at all, as it has little value. Looks are trumped by smarts, personality, morals.

One prime example would be that of what might become known as the 'Sasha Incident'. Back at muggle school. There had been a girl, Sasha, who was completely enamored with Fedya. Entirely head-over-heels, assured that they would become married one day. In fact, she told Fedya that they were going to have twelve kids and live in a big brick mansion. To any other boy at the school, it would have been a dream come true. Reason to run home, boasting about their pretty new girlfriend. See, Sasha had been a pretty girl. Popular, funny, the kind of girl that all the boys were so in love with (or as close to love as one could get as a child under ten). Fedya never folded. He didn't fall for the promises of ice cream after school if he just would become her boyfriend, didn't bend over backwards to carry her books through the hallways.

Jokingly, he might credit it to his poor eyesight--rendering most things blurry, but he knows the truth. That he truly just values who a person is over their external features, and has never known 'attraction' like his peers. Not romantic, not platonic. He's never looked at a person and thought to himself they're cool looking, I like them. In fact, most impressions are based chiefly upon 'vibes' and the initial energy a person gives off, rather than their physical appearance.

Now, in his school life, Fedya still doesn't have many friends. Yes, some mere acquaintances will do, but no true friends. Maybe it is because of his reluctance to judge based on looks (or a complete lack of awareness of what people do look like), but either way, this 'meh' sort of reaction to the looks of others does impact the boy in his everyday school life. Maybe it's facial blindness (as Fedya can often be observed saying 'they all look the same to me'), maybe it's ignorance, maybe it's an unfortunate ability. Who knows?

Where were the Ilvermorny racers? That was the one question on Irina’s mind as she sped through the course with no one else in sight. She was on her own out in the front and as long as nothing drastic happened she could keep this up for the rest of the race. The obstacles weren’t a problem for her as she was just happily moving along. Taking a moment to pause and glance up at the calm sky, Irina felt a bubble of happiness rise up inside her for being able to succeed so far for her school and team.
